ALLreLi 2 in 1 Stylus




Love this stylus much better then any I have tried thus far. My fingers just can not move things on the screen, the screen just doesn't pick up my finger prints. So a Stylus is a must unless I want to fight with my tech gear.

The pen however I am not so happy with, not my kind of pens. Does not write smoothly, more of like a scratching feeling but then again that is my opinion, and others might love this kind of pen.

I would still recommend this 2 in 1 because the stylus is just that good. Makes my life just that much more easy.



You can purchase the ALLreLi 2 in 1 Stylus on Amazon.


What Allreli has to say about the product.

Dual Functions:
Dual Design both Capacitive Stylus and Ballpoint Pen into One!

Material of Stylus Head:
--Fabric quality which is smoother, softer and more resistant, not only supports sensitive and smooth touching, but also soft to protect the screen against scratches or any damage.
--Twisting the barrel to retract ballpoint pen for using, twisting back to recede it, so it's safe to carry in your pocket.

Gel Pen:
--The ballpoint pen is Black Ink which flows smoothly even when creating line without stuttering perfectly!
--The ink from the gel part of the pen is fully refillable and can be replaced with standard size ink in most stationary shops.

Fashionable and Convenient:
This stylus is designed with ballpoint pen and a smart clip. The clip is portable for using, hooking on your pocket, notebook, case pocket etc. You can image how fantastic when stylus pen like assistant to help you work on touch-screen device and take notes on notebook at the same time!

Extra long reach





Not every house had a plentitude of outlets. We live in a big old house that even though large has very few outlets. As in our huge living room only has two outlets not nearly enough so we have to run cords or decorate strategically so we don't have to run cords.

Having a long cable to be able to charge our devices is a must if we are charging anywhere except the charging station my husband has yet to build. A 10 foot cord like this one by Reach Cables is just what we needed, for extra long reach so we could keep our tech close by while it is charging.

I really like the braided cord because it seems so much more stronger than others on the market. I also like the bag it came in to store it when not in use. Keeps it tidy.

You can purchase the Reach Cable on Amazon.

No more flying headphones



Our family has gone through lots of headphones. Even though we still purchase cheaper headphones for our younger children we have invested in better headphones for ourselves and our older children.

We want a great headphone for an affordable price. We have had a few now and this bluetooth set of headphones from Pulseaudio is a good one for me, although I would prefer these to be out of ear headphones.

I have a habit of getting the cord tangled up in my hands because I use them to talk with, clean with, cook with, etc. I need headphones what will not be flying off of my head everytime I move.

Bluetooth technology allows me to move freely while still being able to listen to my favorite music. Now if only they made these in over the ear I would be in total love with them. They hook up easily to your bluetooth, and have great sound for working out, running, cleaning, etc.

You can purchase Pulseaudio Bluetooth headphones on amazon.

Gearing up for school


It is almost school time here for my children and I want to make sure their tech devices are always charged and ready to go. I try to get them to tech now when ever possible and they are pretty good with it, but when winter rolls in and there is nothing to do but shovel or be inside they tend to get a little more attached to their tech items when we aren't doing something together as a family.

This cord will have your children's tech items charged and ready to go. If your children have cell phones then you might want to make sure they are powered up in case of emergency so you can get a hold of them or they can get a hold of you.

If you have a AC wall adapter with a USB port you can charge your products even quicker. This lighting cord does not come with one but they are somewhat easy to find for a low price. I know my children have a habit of losing their cords or they break and we need to replace them quite often. Gnome Workshop helps me save money but keeping their prices low so I can keep our devices running.

You can purchase the Gnome Workshop lighting to USB cable on Amazon.



What Gnome Workshop has to say about their product.

- Are you tired of paying 20$ for lightning cables that you end up losing or breaking?

      Light up Charging Cable



      Charging cords are something we go through quite frequently, they are like socks they disappear and no one seems to know what happened to any of them. I thought maybe if we had light up charging cables then everyone could have their own color and no one could get a way with saying one was theirs when it wasn't the color they were given. 

      So far so good although I do need a few more so that everyone had one. I know that I can't plug into my computer to charge but I can plug into an outlet and it works fine. Not sure if anyone else runs into that problem or not but it seems to be the only way to charge my iPad Mini.

      The light is not bright so you don't have to worry about it being overwhelming but bright enough that you can find your device in the dark. I know my girls certainly are enjoying their light up cords, guess I get stuck with the plain white one I have.

      You can  purchase the Light up Charging Cable on Amazon.

      NFC Tags





      The first use that comes to mind with a NFC tag is transferring of information to friends, family, business associates or anyone else who needs your information and has a android.

      Being a busy mom I run into people all of the time who want to exchange information. I am thinking business card, website, and social networks shared through my NFC to their android device.

      Great for making play dates with other moms, giving out your business information to a client, etc.
